Section
7. Termination or Suspension of Employment or
Service. The following provisions shall
apply in the event of Awardee’s termination of employment or service unless the
Committee shall have provided otherwise, either at the time of the grant of
the
Restricted Stock Unit Award or thereafter.
(a) Termination
for Cause or upon a Voluntary Termination. Except as the
Committee may at any time otherwise provide or as required to comply with
applicable law, if Awardee’s employment or service with Micro or its Affiliates
is terminated for Cause or the Awardee voluntarily terminates employment,
his/her Restricted Stock Unit Award shall immediately be terminated and he/she
shall not be entitled to receive any payment thereunder.
(b) Termination
of Employment or Service by Micro or its Affiliates in
General. Except as the Committee may at any time otherwise
provide or as required to comply with applicable law, if Awardee’s employment or
service with Micro or its Affiliates is terminated for any reason other than
Voluntary Termination, Death, Disability, Retirement or Cause, Awardee’s right
to receive a payment under his/her Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be reduced
from 100% of the payment that would be due if the Awardee remained employed
throughout the Measurement Period to a fraction thereof whose numerator shall
be
the number of full months elapsed from the beginning of the Measurement Period
or, if later, the date such Awardee became an Executive through the date of
such
termination and whose denominator shall be 36; provided, however that if the
numerator is less than 12, the Restricted Stock Unit Award shall immediately
be
terminated and the Awardee shall not be entitled to receive any payment
thereunder.
(c) Death. Except
as the Committee may at any time otherwise provide or as required to comply
with
applicable law, if Awardee’s employment or service with Micro or its Affiliates
is terminated by reason of death, his/her estate shall receive (at the time
of
the close of the Measurement Period, and determination of Micro’s performance
against the targets set forth in Exhibit A) a full payment under the
Restricted Stock Unit Award to which he/she would be entitled had he/she
remained employed through the end of the Measurement Period with payout based
upon results at the end of the Measurement Period.
(d) Disability. Except
as the Committee may at any time otherwise provide or as required to comply
with
applicable law, if Awardee’s employment or service with Micro or its Affiliates
is terminated by reason of Disability, for purposes of determining the payment
he/she is entitled to receive under the Restricted Stock Unit Award, he/she
shall be treated as continuing to be employed through the end of the Measurement
Period with payout based upon the results at the end of the Measurement
Period.
(e) Effective
Time of Termination. Except as the Committee may otherwise
determine, for purposes hereof any termination of Awardee’s employment or
service for any reason shall occur on the date such Awardee ceases to perform
services for Micro or any Affiliate without regard to whether such Awardee
continues thereafter to receive any compensatory payments therefrom or is paid
salary thereby in lieu of notice of termination.
Section
8. Restrictions on Issuance of Shares of Common
Stock. Micro shall not be obligated to
issue any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Restricted Stock Unit Award
unless the shares are at that time effectively registered or exempt from
registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and, as
applicable, local laws.

Section
9. Responsibility for
Taxes. Regardless of any action
Micro or Awardee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with
respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on
account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), Awardee
acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally
due
by Awardee is and remains Awardee’s responsibility and that Micro and/or the
Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment
of
any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock
Unit
Award, including the grant and vesting of the Restricted Stock Unit Award,
the
delivery of shares of Common Stock, the subsequent sale of shares of Common
Stock acquired pursuant to the Restricted Stock Unit Award and the receipt
of
any dividends or other distributions, if any; and (2) do not commit to structure
the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Unit Award to
reduce or eliminate Awardee’s liability for Tax-Related Items.
Prior
to a
taxable event, Awardee shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory
to
Micro and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items withholding and
payment on account obligations of Micro and/or the Employer. In this
regard, if permissible under local law, Awardee authorizes Micro and/or the
Employer, at their sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as they
may
specify from time to time, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all
applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by one or a combination of the
following: (1) withholding from Awardee’s wages or other cash compensation paid
to Awardee by Micro and/or the Employer; (2) withholding from proceeds of the
sale of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Restricted Stock Unit
Award; (3) arranging for the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired
pursuant to the Restricted Stock Unit Award (on Awardee’s behalf and at
Awardee’s discretion pursuant to this authorization); or (4) withholding in
shares of Common Stock, provided that Micro only withholds the amount of shares
of Common Stock necessary to satisfy the minimum withholding
amount. If the obligation for Awardee’s Tax-Related Items is
satisfied by withholding a number of shares of Common Stock as described herein,
Awardee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock
subject to the Restricted Stock Unit Award, notwithstanding that a number of
the
shares of Common Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the
Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of this Restricted Stock Unit
Award.
Finally,
Awardee will pay to Micro or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that
Micro or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of Awardee’s
participation in the Plan or Awardee’s acquisition of shares of Common Stock
that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. Micro may
refuse to deliver the shares of Common Stock if Awardee fails to comply with
his
or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in
this
section.
Section
10. Adjustment. The
number of shares of Common Stock subject to this Restricted Stock Unit Award
and
the price per share, if any, of such shares may be adjusted by Micro from time
to time pursuant to the Plan.
Section
11. Nature of the
Award. By accepting this Restricted
Stock Unit Award, Awardee acknowledges that:
|
|
(1)
|
the
Plan is established voluntarily by Micro, it is discretionary in
nature
and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by Micro
at any
time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Award
Agreement;
|
|
|
(2)
|
the
grant of the Restricted Stock Unit Award is voluntary and occasional
and
does not create any contractual or other right to receive future
grants of
Restricted Stock Unit Award, or benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock
Unit
Awards, even if Restricted Stock Unit Awards have been granted repeatedly
in the past;
|
|
|
(3)
|
all
decisions with respect to future Restricted Stock Unit Award grants,
if
any, will be at the sole discretion of
Micro;
|
|
|
(4)
|
participation
in the Plan shall not create a right to further employment with the
Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of the Employer
to
terminate Awardee’s employment relationship at any time with or without
cause;
|
3
|
|
(5)
|
participating
in the Plan is voluntary;
|
|
(6)
|
the
Restricted
Stock Unit Award
is an extraordinary
item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for services
of any
kind rendered to Micro or the Employer,
and which is outside the
scope of Awardee’s
employment
contract,
if any;
|
|
(7)
|
the
Restricted
Stock Unit Award
and the shares
of
Common Stock acquired under the Plan are not part of normal or expected
compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited
to,
calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy,
end of
service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension,
welfare or retirement benefits or
similar payments, and in no event should be considered as compensation
for, or relating in any way to, past services to Micro or the Employer;
|
|
(8)
|
in
the event Awardee is not an
employee of Micro or
Awardee is an employee of a subsidiary or Affiliate of Micro, the Restricted
Stock Unit Award
will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship
with Micro; and furthermore, the Restricted Stock Unit Award will
not be
interpreted to form an employment contract with the Employer or
any subsidiary or
Affiliate of
Micro;
|
|
(9)
|
the
future value of the underlying
shares of Common Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with
certainty;
|
|
(10)
|
if
Awardee accepts the Restricted
Stock Unit Award and obtains shares of Common Stock, the value of
those
shares of Common Stock acquired may increase or decrease in value;
and
|
|
(11)
|
in
consideration of the grant of
the Restricted Stock Unit Award, no claim or entitlement to compensation
or damages shall arise from termination of the Restricted Stock Unit
Award
or diminution in value of the Restricted Stock Unit Award or shares
of
Common Stock acquired under the Restricted Stock Unit Award resulting
from termination
of Awardee’s employment by Micro or the Employer (for any reason
whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and
Awardee
irrevocably releases Micro and
the Employer from any such
claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such
claim is
found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then,
by
signing this Award Agreement, Awardee shall be deemed irrevocably
to have
waived Awardee’s entitlement
to pursue such
claim;
|
|
|
(12)
|
notwithstanding
any terms or
conditions of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of involuntary
termination of Awardee’s employment
(whether or not in
breach of local labor laws), Awardee’s right
to receive Restricted
Stock Units
under the Plan,
if
any, will terminate effective as of the date that Awardee is
no
longer actively employed; Micro
shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Awardee is
no
longer actively employed for
purposes of the Restricted
Stock Unit
Award;
|
|
(13)
|
the
vesting of any Restricted
Stock Unit
Award ceases
upon termination
of
employment, or other
cessation of eligibility to vest for any reason, except as may otherwise
be explicitly provided in the Plan document or this Award
Agreement;
|
|
(14)
|
Micro
is not providing any tax,
legal or financial advice, nor is Micro making any recommendations
regarding Awardee’s
participation in the
Plan or the
acquisition or the
sale of shares of Common Stock under the
Plan;
|
|
(15)
|
Awardee
is advised to
consult with personal
tax, legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the
Plan
before taking any action related to the
Plan;
|
|
(16)
|
Awardee
acknowledges
that this Award Agreement is
between Awardee
and Micro,
and that
the Employer
is not a party to
this Award Agreement;
and
|

|
(17)
|
Awardee

with any data requested if Awardee is a mobile employee to facilitate
the

Section
12. Data Privacy.
Awardee
explicitly and unambiguously consents to the
collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Awardee’s personal
data as described in this document by and among, as applicable, Micro, the
Employer and Affiliates of Micro for the exclusive purpose of implementing,
administering and managing Awardee’s participation in the

address and telephone number, date of birth, national insurance number or other
identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock
or
directorships held in Micro, details of all restricted stock units or other
entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested
or
outstanding in Awardee’s favor, for the purpose of implementing, administering
and managing the Plan (“Data”). Awardee is aware that providing Micro
with Awardee’s data is necessary for the performance of this Award Agreement and
that Awardee’s denial to provide such data would make it impossible for Micro to
perform its contractual obligations and may affect Awardee’s ability to vest or
realize benefits from the Restricted Stock Unit Award or otherwise participate
in the Plan. The Controller of personal data processing is Xxxxxx
Micro Inc., with registered offices at 0000 X. Xx. Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx Xxx,

Awardee
understands that Data will not be publicized, but it may be transferred to
banks, other financial institutions or brokers involved in the management and
administration of the Plan, including the External
Administrator. Awardee further understands that Micro, the
Employer and/or any Subsidiary or Affiliate will transfer Data among
themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementing, administering and
managing the Awardee’s participation in the Plan, and that Micro, the Employer
and/or any Subsidiary or Affiliate may each further transfer Data to third
parties assisting Micro in the implementation, administration and management
of
the Plan, including any requisite transfer of Data to a broker or other third
party with whom Awardee may elect to deposit any shares of Common Stock acquired
under the Plan. Such recipients may receive, possess, use, retain and
transfer Data in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing,
administering and managing Awardee’s participation in the
Plan. Awardee understands that these recipients may be located in or
outside the European Economic Area, such as in the United States or
elsewhere. Should Micro exercise its discretion in suspending all
necessary legal obligations connected with the management and administration
of
the Plan, it will delete Data as soon as it has accomplished all the necessary
legal obligations connected with the management and administration of the
Plan.
Awardee
understands that Data processing related to the purposes specified above shall
take place under automated or non-automated conditions, anonymously when
possible, that comply with the purposes for which Data is collected and with
confidentiality and security provisions as set forth by applicable laws and
regulations, with specific reference to Legislative Decree no.
196/2003.
The
processing activity, including communication, the transfer of Data abroad,
including outside of the European Economic Area, as herein specified and
pursuant to applicable laws and regulations, does not require the Awardee’s
consent thereto as the processing is necessary to performance of contractual
obligations related to implementation, administration and management of the
Plan. Awardee understands that, pursuant to Section 7 of the
Legislative Decree no. 196/2003, Awardee has the right to, including but not
limited to, access, delete, update, correct or stop, for legitimate reason,
the
Data processing. Furthermore, Awardee is aware that Data will not be
used for direct marketing purposes. In addition, Data provided can be

Section
